Review the following examples of data and determine whether each is process, perception, or outcome data. Remember that process data is what you did for whom; perception data is what people think they know; and outcome data is how students are measurably different.
Drag each example into the appropriate column. If you prefer, you can also do this activity using a form with radio buttons. Some browsers may work best with (or show only) one or the other format; use the one that works best for you.
